Council spending for young adults leaving care
Hi there,
I am writing to request the following information under the Freedom of Information Act.
1) What was the maximum amount the council budget allowed to be paid out in the form of a ‘leaving care grant' (sometimes also called a setting up home allowance) in the 2022-2023 financial year?
2) How many young people left the care of your council on or after their 16th birthday in the 2022-2023 financial year?
3) How many of these young people received a leaving care grant?
4) What was the average amount (both mean and median) paid out to care leavers in a leaving care grant in the 2022-2023 financial year?
5) What was the lowest amount paid out to a care leaver in a leaving care grant in the 2022-2022 financial year?
6) What was the highest amount paid out to a care leaver in a ‘leaving care grant’ in the 2022-2023 financial year?
